The answer is <span>A. A leather tannery. A tannery produces a sludge as a byproduct that is high in various toxic elements including chromium, a heavy metal that is highly toxic. Other pollutants produced include sodium, calcium, sulfur, magnesium, phosphate, copper, tin, lead, arsenic cadmium and zinc. Tannery effluent is an extremely toxic pollutant that could cause great harm if released into the environment, and for that reason, the tannery industry needs to be highly regulated and managed. </span>
Answer:
D) sympatric speciation and habitat isolation
Explanation:
Sympatric isolation is a form of evolutionary process whereby different species from an ancestral origin evolve within the same geographical environment as a result of reproductive isolation.
Habitat isolation is a form of reproductive isolation which occurs when two populations of a species inhabiting overlapping habitats become unable to interbreed with each other.
Reproductive isolation (habitat isolation) that occurs in the fleas is as a result of the new species becoming separate from it's ancestral species which feed only on pronghorn antelopes, although both species can still be found in the same geographical location (rangeland). The new species now have preference for cattle blood, and so are now found on cattle.
In the situation of the two new species of flea that would evolve, it can be said to an example of sympatric speciation and habitat isolation, since the host mammal is assumed to be their habitat and both the cattle and pronghorns often associate with one another in the same open rangeland.
Fractional distillation is the process in which the alkanes in petroleum can be partly separated. This is due to the petroleum having different boiling points. The process starts off with the heating of crude oil for it to vaporize. The vaporized crude oil is then fed into the bottom of the distillation tower. The resulting vapor rises through a vertical column. As the gases rises through the distillation tower, its temperature decreases. Thus, certain hydrocarbons begin to condense and run off at varying levels. Each level-specific condensed fraction contains hydrocarbon molecules that has a similar number of carbon atoms. These "cuts" of boiling point allow numerous hydrocarbons to be separated out in a single process. The cooling of the tower height allows for the separation. Subsequent to the refinement, individual fuels may undergo more refinement to remove existing contaminants or substances so as to improve the quality of the fuel through cracking.
The statement that "A clustering appointment type is when patients with similar problems are booked consecutively on the same day" is true. Clustering is type of appointmnet scheduling. In this type of scheduling patients with similar problems are booked consecutively. A block of time is set aside for particular types of cases.
